All my kittens have been adopted, but what about me? 💔

https://rainrescue.co.uk/animals/suki-1-year-old-female/

I’m starting to wonder if I’ll ever get adopted &
I’m only a young girl! I’m super friendly & loving too, so I thought everyone would want me 🤷‍♀️

I’m family friendly, could potentially live with another cat, and spend my days dreaming of my own family 🥰

Please will you share to finally help me find my purrfect home? 🙏

Lots of love, Suki x

Please Help Me, I'm Poorly 😫

I'm Jager, you may have seen me around before. I'm one of the 7 orphans without a Mum. I have been doing quite well... up to now! 😢

I was taken to the vets yesterday for a check up because it is suspected that I may have cat flu. I have poorly eyes, a poorly tummy and am very snotty and chesty too. I'm only skinny, some people say the runt of the litter whatever that means, so it's super important that I don't lose any more weight!

I am now in isolation with 3 of my siblings, they are also a little under the weather, but I'm the only one with eye drops at the minute. Hopefully I get better so I won't need any more nasty medicine 🤮

Because of my poorly tummy, we are going through lots of puppy pads, will you help by donating some more please?🙏 You can do so by dropping them off at our centre any day between the hours of 11am and 3pm, or by donating for us to buy some here - https://rainrescue.co.uk/product/donate-puppy-pads/

📍 Summerfield Lodge, Moat Lane, Wickersley, Rotherham, S66 1DZ

My siblings & I would really appreciate your help, at only 3 weeks old, we need to be getting stronger, not weaker! 💔

Swifty is our animal of the week 😻🐾

All Swifty's kittens have been adopted, and although she has been in our care for 17 weeks now, she has only had one enquiry! Left behind without her kittens or a family and home of her own 😫💔

She is such a sweet, friendly and affectionate girl. She is also family friendly and could potentially live with other furry friends too. Just an all round great addition to any household 🥰🏡

https://rainrescue.co.uk/animals/swifty-2-year-old-female/

Her adoption fee is £85 (Reduced from £135 for this week only!)

Please share to help us find Swifty a home this August 🧡

Hand rearing these beauties is nearly over! 😅🐾

You may remember Mary, Tequila, Mojito, and Whiskey who we took in after their mother had too many kittens to feed and care for.

It's been 2 weeks since they arrived in our care, and we'd like to say a big THANK YOU to our amazing team and fosterers who have been hand rearing them day and night for nearly 3 weeks. They arrived as orphans and would not have had a chance without this around the clock care. They are all doing well, and are even now eating mousse and trying biscuits too 😻

We'd also like to say a big thank you to you too! To everyone that has donated food, supplies or money towards their care, you have allowed us to give Mary, Tequila, Mojito, and Whiskey a better start to life and we honestly couldn't do it without you! 🥰

If their story has inspired you to consider becoming a foster carer for cats or dogs in the future, you can find out more via our website 🧡

🐾 Meet Endeavor – 8 Weeks and Still Waiting for a Home 🧡

Endeavor has been patiently waiting for someone to love him, but the days are feeling longer, and his kennel feels emptier without a family to call his own. This gentle boy craves human companionship and has so much love to give, but after 8 long weeks, he's still alone 😔

He’s not a fan of other animals, so he’s hoping to find a home where he can be the centre of attention. Endeavor is making progress with his lead training, but what he really needs is someone with patience and a big heart to help him continue on his journey.

Please, don’t let him wait any longer. Could you be the one to finally give him the loving home he so desperately needs? 🏡💔

See more here: https://rainrescue.co.uk/animals/endeavor-2-year-old-male-available-soon/

Let’s end his wait and bring him home 🧡

It's , and we're celebrating by shining a spotlight on our adorable feline friends who are eagerly looking for new homes 🏡🐱

11 of these cats have been with us for over six weeks, patiently waiting for the day their forever family walks through our doors. Adoptions were low in July, and it breaks our hearts to think they might spend another month without a loving home 💔

Please share this post and help us give these wonderful cats a second chance at a happy life 🙏🧡

You can view and apply for any of our cats via our website - https://rainrescue.co.uk/cats/

We need your help—our kennel washing machine has broken! 😫

Keeping all the blankets, towels, and toys in our kennels clean is essential for the comfort and well-being of our dogs at Rain Rescue 🐾

If anyone has a durable washing machine they'd like to donate, it would be massively appreciated🙏 alternatively we need to buy a washing machine to maintain our usual high standards of care.

If just 100 of our 55,000 social media supporters each donated £3, we could buy a brand new washing machine that would last for years to come.

Please email us at [email protected] if you have a washing machine to donate. Or you can donate to help us purchase another using the details below:

🌟 Donate via this post or on our website: https://rainrescue.co.uk/donate/
🌟 Text RAIN3 to 70580 to donate £3* (Change 3 to any amount between 1-10 to adjust the donation, e.g. RAIN5)

*Texts cost the chosen donation amount plus one standard network rate message.

Thank you for your support! 🧡

Mini has had a challenging life and has been at Rain Rescue for 7 weeks without any enquiries 😫💔

https://rainrescue.co.uk/animals/mini-8-month-old-female/

She was originally found injured and in pain, roaming the streets with a degloved lip. After receiving treatment at the vet, we hoped her story was turning around!

Though she's no longer in pain on the streets, Mini still lacks the loving home she deserves. At just 8 months old, after such a tough beginning, she truly needs a fresh start 🙏

Mini's foster mum says she thrives on companionship and adores cuddles 💕
She starts by sleeping on her blanket on the bed but gradually moves up during the night. Mini also loves Peanut, one of our previously adopted cats, and would be happy in a home with other feline friends 🥰🐾

Please give Mini the love and life she deserves. Share her story with your family and friends to help us find Mini the fresh start she so desperately needs 🤞

We cannot thank The Lord Reresby and all their lovely customers enough for their recent fundraiser that raised an amazing £2185.22 for the homeless cats and dogs in our care 🐶🐱

These donations will make such a HUGE impact to our charity and will allow us to continue helping around 400 animals each and every year!

It was lovely to meet Tommy, Heather and their children last week when they visited with the donations 🥰 We are so grateful for your support and hope we can work together again in the future 🧡🐾

So Myself, Heather, Theo and Aria paid a visit today to Rain Rescue to make our donation.

A whopping £1800.22 in cash and a further £385 in online donations.

⭐️ MAKING A GRAND TOTAL OF £2185.22 ⭐️

That’s an unreal amount. The staff at Rain were more than happy to show our family around and the work they do up there is absolutely incredible and they are all true hero’s to the dogs and cats.

We will continue to support this fantastic charity for the foreseeable with more events to be planned in due course.

Thank you all once again for your generosity and support 🐾 🐶 🐱

Hi all, It's Sweetpea here, again! ☹️
https://rainrescue.co.uk/animals/sweetpea-3-year-old-female/

You may have seen me before, but unfortunately, I am back looking for a new home as my last home wasn't quite the right match for me :(

I am a sweet girl who loves a fuss and sometimes can be very chatty. I love to snuggle up in my bed and I LOVE to play with feathers and catnip. 🐾

The kind of home I am looking for is a quiet one, where I can come and go as I please. I prefer not to be around young children; if I do have to share my home with children, I would like them to be aged 16+. I would also be happiest being the only pet🐾

Once I have settled in, I would love access to the outdoors. I enjoy pottering around, sunbathing, and getting up to all my cat things. 🌞🌿

Please ask the Rain humans about me now! 😻

🌟 Tinsel (now Echo) Update! 😻

You might remember Echo as one of the kittens who struggled with Isospora, a parasite causing constant tummy issues and preventing her from gaining weight. Since being adopted, she has gained nearly 1kg, and we have the best update about her! 🥰

"Look who has put on another 400g in just one month! Nobody believes she's a kitten—she's so big and muscular now. Echo loves running around in the catio and playing with the dogs and Neo. Love, the Fox family."

This heart warming story is a testament to the power of adoption. When you adopt, you change an animal's life for the better! If you're ready to make a difference, check out the animals we have available for adoption: https://rainrescue.co.uk/animals/

🌟 Oliver, now Loki, has found his forever home with our very own animal carer, Emma! 😻❤️

Loki had a rough start to life, found in a bin and brought to Rain Rescue. But just look at him now—settled and happy! We're thrilled he’s staying within the Rain family! 🥰

Emma shares, "Loki has been such a great addition to our family. He’s settling in so well, becoming more confident each day, and has found his new favorite sleeping spot—either around my neck or chest! 😂 He's very brave, approaching our two adult cats without hesitation. We're still working on his introduction to our dog, Finley, who is just too excited to meet Loki, but we'll get there with time."

Thank you Emma for giving Loki a loving home. We’re so happy for you both! 🧡🌟

Hi everyone, I'm Hathaway! https://rainrescue.co.uk/animals/hathaway-2-year-old-male-available-soon/

I'm a wonderful boy who loves affection and being around people. I thrive on human companionship but prefer to be the only pet in the home, as I’m not too fond of other animals.

I’m doing well with my lead training and need an adopter who can dedicate time and patience to help me continue to improve.

I’ll be available soon, so don't miss out on the chance to welcome me into your life! Register your interest by filling out an application form today, I can't wait to meet my new family!🐾

Hello everyone! I'm Marble! https://rainrescue.co.uk/animals/marble-7-month-old-male/

I am super excited to let you all know that I am looking for my forever home! 🏡I am very loving, I love being held, making biscuits, getting lots of attention and I just love being loved! 💖

My perfect home would be with someone who has the time for me, one who will be able to play and fuss over me as much as I need. The humans do say maybe a loving cat friend might be a good option for me. 🐱 but I am not sure about dogs, maybe calm, dog-friendly ones! If I have to share my home with children, they need to be very aware that I will need my own space.👶

Once I have settled in my new home, I would love to be able to explore the outdoors. I have lots of energy and I am super nosey. 🌳🌞

If you think we’d be a purr-fect match, please get in touch! Let's make a new start together. 🏡❤️

Hi everyone!
I'm baby Whiskey, you know one of the little orphan's kittens.

Guess what! Me and my siblings are doing well, we are starting to show interest in the litter tray and even better yummy kitten moose!
We absolutely love it and it's really helping us gain weight and grow into strong little kittens!

We are running low and desperately need it to help us continue growing, you see without Mum we need extra help and support.

Please can you donate to us?

Can you imagine being 15 year old, taken to a cattery for a holiday and your owners never coming back? 💔

This is the heartbreaking story of Eric.

Eric was taken for his "holiday" little did he know he was never going home and was never going to see his family again....

To all the efforts that were made to try reunite him it just never happened, nobody wanted poor Eric and he was in danger of being put to sleep if nobody came forward for him🥺

We just couldn't let this happen, how could we.
This old man is the sweetest boy you could ever meet.🖤

However he desperately needs our help and the help from our amazing supporters.

Eric currently is on a special diet to help with his bad tummy, he is on antibiotics to help with a urine Infection he has and he also needs a dental!

This sweet boy needs all this treatment before we can search for his retirement home.

Can you help!?🙏😭
